Try getting some local celebrities involved: radio DJs, news anchors, athletes from local sports teams, the high school football team, and anyone else you can think of to make your fundraising event as big as possible!

Advertise. For maximum profit, you need maximum impact. Put posters up around your town, school and workplace. If you can get local celebrities involved then also get them to mention the kissing booth on their radio show or news spot, and ask your local newspaper to place an advertisement too. Most importantly, make sure your signs are informative and clear. They need to show when and where the pony kissing booth will be, and who the public can look forward to locking lips with!

Sponsorship. It’s always a great idea to get local businesses involved in charity events. Think of businesses that would be useful to your specific event. For example, talk to businesses such as local pharmacies, who could promote their brand of lip balm in return for a donation to your charity.

How to Make Money with Kiss a Pony FundraiserTo make money with a kiss-the-pony fundraiser, you have a few options:

Sell voting rights. Charge a set fee for a right to vote for who has to kiss the pony. There is no limit to the amount of votes a person can buy. Choose several potential kissing candidates that your crowd would like to see in the hot seat. You can continually update the public as to who is in the lead to motivate people to vote.

Admission fee. Who wouldn’t pay a few bucks to see their favorite prominent figure a kiss from a pony?

Advertising. Offer local businesses advertising space, or ask them to somehow sponsor the event.

Side-shows. Hold the kissing as the main event (with or without admission) and take advantage of the crowd to fundraise in other ways, such as selling food and refreshments, raffles, on-hand product sales, event hats and t-shirts, etc.

Collection plate. Take up a collection and agree that the subject (or a secondary volunteer) gets a second kiss if the group can reach a goal amount (of course, all donations are non-refundable if the goal is not met). Alternatively, the deal could be that the pony only gets kissed when a goal amount has been reachedOf course, you can modify the kiss-the-pony fundraiser in any way that suits your group and your public. This crazy and fun fundraising idea will bring out the crowds for some good-hearted public belittling. ​
